Bottle from stfun, thanks josh! By far the best out of the five beers tonight. Light hint of blueberry in the aroma. Dark color, followed by a red head which I have never seen before in a beer. Taste was a nice touch of blueberries in a stout. But it still had the stout characteristics. Roasted malt, chocolate and coffee. Good smooth texture, which made it easy to drink. Overall a really good brew, thanks Josh for this one!

12 oz. bottle - thanks to pepsican for the trade; pours jet black with thin tan head; aromas of blueberry and chocolate; smells almost like blueberry pancakes soaked in maple syrup; rich with a slight tartness from the blueberries as it tastes like they used wild blueberries; chocolate and roasty in the finish; nice texture to it as well; wow, i thought this was just fantastic

12 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with yem25. Pours black with a large dark brown head that faded to a ring at mid-glass and left a semi-transparent brown film on the glass with each sip. The aroma of blueberries is very strong, especially right after the pour, with roasted malt and just a bit of chocolate. The flavor is mostly lightly roasted malt with subtle blueberry towards the finish. The blueberry becomes more apparent in the aftertaste and lingers for a few seconds beyond the swallow. Fairly smooth at the finish. Full bodied. A very enjoyable beer.
